GLUTEAL AMNESIA, also known as the "dead butt syndrome" simply means:
➡️ Your gluteal muscles have been "unused" for so long that they now fail to activate whenever your body needs them to
🔥The unexpected consequence of too much sitting 🔥
The negatives of a sedentary lifestyle are widely known❗️
One issue that doesn't get mentioned enough is GLUTEAL AMNESIA, also known as the "dead butt syndrome".

GLUTEAL AMNESIA, also known as the "dead butt syndrome" simply means:
➡️ Your gluteal muscles have been "unused" for so long that they now fail to activate whenever your body needs them to
Role of the Glutes:
➡️ Play a major role in the way our body moves
➡️ Not just there for aesthetics
➡️ Crucial for keeping our torsos upright, moving/rotating of the thighs & walking/running
GLUTEAL AMNESIA ⁉️
➡️ Glutes get so weak that they forget to activate
➡️ Consequence: Other muscles need to compensate - such as your lower back muscles or hip flexors
➡️ This can cause all sorts of problems such as lower back pain, knee pain & poor posture

Charting early steps for H₂ infrastructure in Europe.
👉Summary of conclusions of a new study by @AgoraEW @AFRY_global @Ma_Deutsch @gnievchenko (1/17)
https://t.co/YA50FA57Em
The idea behind this study is that future hydrogen demand is highly uncertain and we don’t want to spend tens of billions of euros to repurpose a network which won’t be needed. For instance, hydrogen in ground transport is a hotly debated topic https://t.co/RlnqDYVzpr (2/17)
Similar things can be said about heat. 40% of today’s industrial natural gas use in the EU goes to heat below 100°C and therefore is within range of electric heat pumps – whose performance factors far exceed 100%. (3/17)
Even for higher temperatures, a range of power-to-heat (PtH) options can be more energy-efficient than hydrogen and should be considered first. Available PtH technologies can cover all temperature levels needed in industrial production (e.g. electric arc furnace: 3500°C). (4/17)
In our view, hydrogen use for feedstock and chemical reactions is the only inescapable source of industrial hydrogen demand in Europe that does not lend itself to electrification. Examples include ammonia, steel, and petrochemical industries. (5/17)

MDZS is laden with buddhist references. As a South Asian person, and history buff, it is so interesting to see how Buddhism, which originated from India, migrated, flourished & changed in the context of China. Here's some research (🙏🏼 @starkjeon for CN insight + citations)
1. LWJ’s sword Bichen ‘is likely an abbreviation for the term 躲避红尘 (duǒ bì hóng chén), which can be translated as such: 躲避: shunning or hiding away from 红尘 (worldly affairs; which is a buddhist teaching.) (https://t.co/zF65W3roJe) (abbrev. TWX)
2. Sandu (三 毒), Jiang Cheng’s sword, refers to the three poisons (triviṣa) in Buddhism; desire (kāma-taṇhā), delusion (bhava-taṇhā) and hatred (vibhava-taṇhā).
These 3 poisons represent the roots of craving (tanha) and are the cause of Dukkha (suffering, pain) and thus result in rebirth.
Interesting that MXTX used this name for one of the characters who suffers, arguably, the worst of these three emotions.
3. The Qian kun purse “乾坤袋 (qián kūn dài) – can be called “Heaven and Earth” Pouch. In Buddhism, Maitreya (मैत्रेय) owns this to store items. It was believed that there was a mythical space inside the bag that could absorb the world.” (TWX)
